Our new health insurance premium feels more like a shakedown‼️
Thank you, @politicsgirl.bsky.social , for sharing your story. You’re right—there are millions like you.
Our new premium is over $3K/month for a family of three. Could we scrape it together? Maybe. Should we have to? No.

Padilla is the top Dem on the Senate Judiciary immigration subcommittee -- there's no way Noem (who meets regularly with senators on this topic) didn't know who he is.
